Queen Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Barra da Tijuca January 12, 1985 "25th Anniversary Edition" This is a merge of four sources to nearly complete the first night in the best possible quality. The uncut video source is quite a few generations away from the master, so the sound is muffled. Three other sources fill in the gaps. Under Pressure has a small cut, but the show is otherwise complete. I would have shared this along with my version of the Jan 19th show last month, but I was holding out for the Globo TV source (many thanks to Claudio for it!). I Want To Break Free was also broadcast on TV, but after years of searching I've more or less thrown in the towel. If it ever turns up, I'll update this thread. I realize that a fair chunk of this is from a 1985 official release, but the VHS simply can no longer be found for a legitimate purchase, which means Queen Productions won't lose a penny from this. If people interested in this download were around in the mid-80s, they probably bought the video back then too. That said, if I'm asked to remove the links by the powers that be, I'll do so without hesitation. * Pro master video > ? > VHS (x) > DVD-R (x) > WAV (DVD Audio Extractor) > FLAC (Frontend level 8) ** "Live In Rio" official VHS release > DVD-R (1) > WAV (ImTOO DVD ripper) > FLAC (Frontend level 8) *** Globo TV > VHS (x) > DVD-R (1) > WAV (DVD Audio Extractor) > FLAC (Frontend level 8) **** MTV Japan promo > VHS (x) > WAV > FLAC (Frontend level 8) Disc 1: 1) Machines (tape) */** 2) Tear It Up * 3) Tie Your Mother Down **/* 4) Under Pressure [cut] */** 5) Somebody To Love */*** 6) Killer Queen */**** 7) Seven Seas Of Rhye */** 8) Keep Yourself Alive ** 9) Liar */** 10) improv * 11) It's A Hard Life **/* 12) Dragon Attack */**** 13) Now I'm Here * 14) Is This The World We Created? **/* 15) Love Of My Life */*** Disc 2: 1) guitar solo */****/** 2) Brighton Rock (ending) **/* 3) Another One Bites The Dust */**** 4) Mustapha (intro) */** 5) Hammer To Fall **/* 6) Crazy Little Thing Called Love */*** 7) Bohemian Rhapsody **/* 8) Radio Ga Ga **/* 9) I Want To Break Free * 10) Jailhouse Rock * 11) We Will Rock You */** 12) We Are The Champions ** 13) God Save The Queen **/* 14) Rock In Rio theme song * Disc 1 - link Disc 2 - link or link updated info - link Enjoy!

This sounds again like a great project, thanks ! I "THINK" I have Break Free on video, I have to check a couple of tapes and I will let you know if it's from this night |
| The Real Wizard 26.10.2010 02:09 |
From TV ? If Fred has his fake boobs on, we'll have ourselves a winner. Fingers crossed ! |

However I will check it when I come home from the office |

But the thing is , the tapes I bought at the time were transfered from NTSC to PAL, so I wonder if there is a great NTSC version around. Was there a RIO complete in my tapes Pittrek ? |
| pittrek 26.10.2010 06:41 |
There is SOME Rio in your tapes, it's on one of the tapes which I haven't checked completely, just a few random parts. But I have a strong feeling I've seen exactly the song you posted there |

Was anybody able to download the second zip file ? My download was interrupted 9 times and now I keep getting The file you are trying to access is temporarily unavailable. |

There's a DVD out there called Queen in Rio: Lost footage (or something like this, I don't remember exactly). I own a copy wich is ruined in some parts. The DVD includes both nights concerts, with the exception of the released footage. However, the quality sucks in most parts. That IWTB video featuring Freddie with the fake boobs is also included. |
| dive2063 26.10.2010 14:09 |
I'm not able to download either of the parts. "Temporarily unavailable" all the time . By the way, big thanks for the share! |
| Gregsynth 26.10.2010 15:08 |
Thanks Bob! Freddie sounds awesome: Much better than a good chunk of the 1984 gigs! |

That IWTB video featuring Freddie with the fake boobs is also included.The material from the first night there is from the "master tape", but it's many, many gens from the master. The version I'm looking for was broadcast on TV, and it's a better-looking/sounding copy. I've uploaded another link for disc 2. It, too, says "temporarily unavailable," but hopefully at least one person can manage to grab it and torrent the whole thing. In that case, please be sure to use the info file that matches the first post in this thread... it went through a couple revisions. |
| Kef 26.10.2010 15:13 |
Thanks very much for the merges of the two nights in Rio. I was able to get it all last night. Well...techincally this morning at 2:00AM-3:00AM, coincidentally just like the Rio shows themselves, since Queen hit the stage at around 1AM-2AM on Jan 11th/12th 1985 and Jan 18th/19th 1985. |
| Gregsynth 26.10.2010 15:14 |
I did get the "temporarily unavailable" announcement for the 2nd link: But I refreshed the link a few times--and it worked! |

I know it is official stuff but I try lol , is there a possibility to share the single release in usa in 1985 of Hammer to fall? |
| bruno_facio 01.11.2010 19:19 |
Thanks a LOT Sir GH! As a Queen fan from Brazil, I really need to give a special thanks to your work on both Rock'n'Rio nights. It sounds really great, such a fantastic work of merging sources. Is very nice to could hear these two incredible shows in the best possible quality for our days |

It's probably worth while, as it may not have the extra audience noise that was pumped into the VHS release. Bruno - glad you're happy with this stuff. I feel the same way when I hear recordings of my favourite bands playing in Ontario. |
| Gregsynth 01.11.2010 21:06 |
It's great hearing Somebody To Love in better quality. It sounds just like a 1982 version! |

The logo is from an argentinan Tv Channel (canal 13) They boradcast the full first rio show more than once. I don't know if they still have the show in his archives but i think that someone could have a better Vhs copy of the transmition... Greetings! |

Well, if you're talking about the promo 12" it DOES have the extra audience noise (same mix as in official VHS). |

For the ones who don't know, the last file contains the theme song for the festival Rock In Rio, which was held for the first time in January 1985. Some people might find the language different. That's Brazilian Portuguese. Thanks again for the perfection in the job of merging millions of sources to provide us with this great concert in its entirity!! Thank you again! |
